main to baitha tha har ek shai se kinara kar ke
waqt ne chhod diya dost tumhaara kar ke

baat dariya bhi kabhi ruk ke kya karta tha
ab to har mauj guzarti hai ishaara kar ke

wo ajab dushman-e-jaan tha jo mujhe chhod gaya
mere andar hi kahin mujh ko saf-ara kar ke

ek diya aur jalaya hai sahar hone tak
shab-e-hijran tere nam ek sitara kar ke

jab se jagi hai tere lams ki khwahish dil mein
rahna padta hai mujhe khud se kinara kar ke

dasht chhanega teri khak mohabbat se 'said'
ishq dekhega tujhe sare ka sara kar ke
